this is what i found.
ok i have got my batch ready for cold soaking, but i have a question about tannin. i have a bottle of tannin labeled "wine tannin" from LD Carlson Co. product of slovakia. and i don't know if i should be adding any at all or when to add? not sure of type of tannin its is. anyone have any input...
recipe im using has me simmer water, sugar, and crushed berries but i dont have a pot big enough for it all. can i just boil/simmer the water and sugar and pour over berries? or should i split it up between to pots to allow berries to simmer?i ended up with 12lbs of berries btw.
i have approx. 8-12 lbs of elderberries that i picked and froze and am now cleaning off what stems i didn't get during harvest. my question is how important is it that i get all the tiny little pieces of stem off the berries? can i just get the huge stems and the majority of the little stems off...
